Make Our Garden Yours

Kinda scary. Pretty exciting. We are ready to start planting! I know that there are some skeptics out there that in our cold, windy Idaho weather we will have fresh veggies ready for you by the end of May. In a standard home garden, I don’t even recommend putting out starts until the end of May! But, we have some tricks up our sleeve…and a plan to them into action.

So, the first basket…our plan is to have GREENS, BABY CARROTS, BEETS, SPINACH, CHARD, CUCUMBERS and BABY ZUCCHINI! Sounds delicious. If you are one of the more adventurous cooks with a culinary basket…maybe some early eggplant, a variety of fresh herbs and some heirloom beets! Just a disclaimer: We are at the mercy of Mother Nature and she may always ruin our best laid plans.

Keep checking back or follow us on Facebook to see the work we are doing in our gardens and what is starting to grow. I have already spent several afternoons in my garden cleaning up, searching for little green leaves, pruning and making a final plan where everything will go. Today, the garlic and rhubarb are both poking their first leaves through and the perennial herbs are starting to show some amazing color. The herbs already smell delicious while I am working among them to get rid of dead foliage and the first weeds.

my husband and I are in the process of moving to a newly purchased property in your 'neighborhood'. you can't imagine how thrilled we were to discover your story in the North Side Journal; one of the first pieces of mail to be delivered to us!
we do like to garden and enjoy fresh produce but this year won't be able to do much of that as we'll still be settling in. so to see this opportunity arise was a blessing indeed!
our daughter has been encouraging us to shop more locally but we haven't found ways to do that in our Nevada location. I was quite excited to tell her of our discovery and that you were a mere 5 miles down the road . . . that's about as local as it gets I think!

we hope to get more info on the Red Star Ranch and the possibilities of getting grass fed meat as we are in the process of making some dietary changes that suggest that that would be best for us. no freezers at the new place yet but it shouldn't be long.

I really enjoyed reading your blog and seeing what your story and process are all about. All I can say is Hoorah for you and I wish you the very best of luck as you wade into new waters . . . or should I say new dirt/gardens?

not that you probably have much time for it, but I have a blog too and you should feel free to check it out. I have been busy with finding a new Idaho home and now moving so have not made recent posts but it's a way to get to know me before we actually meet. I hope to pick up regular posting again very soon.
